Hi :) 

It's nice to meet you ! My name is Gemma. 

A little about my experience is that I am currently working part-time as a veterinary nurse in a vet clinic in East Malvern. Alongside my job, I am studying to earn my Bachelors of Veterinary Nursing and Technology. Additionally, I hold my Certificate II in Animal Studies. So that just shows how much I adore animals of all walks of life. 

Over the years since starting my course, I have been fortunate enough to work as a pet sitter who has cared for a pets belongs to friends, family, and a few owners I have met along the way. I have loved each and every pet I have taken care of, and gotten along very well with their lovely owners. It is a policy of mine to treat every pet/animal I meet as if it were my own; so therefore you can guarantee that your pet/s will be adored whilst in my care. 

Whilst pet sitting, I make it a priority to regularly communicate with owners by sharing updates, photos, and stories of cute or important moments. I am also pretty flexible with my bookings as I understand life can get busy or unpredictable. However I do work part-time, as mentioned previously, with some evening shifts. I am more than happy to provide my roster for the chosen dates if required.

 My own pets have provided me with more experience that I can ask for, and I am eternally grateful. Like that of my late dog Indie, who was a dog reactive staffy cross. Because of her, I am confident to say that I am confident and comfortable working with reactive dogs. Additionally, I have taken care of plenty of shelter cats who did not grow up around people - and feel just as comfortable handling them too. 

I hope this helps paint an idea of who I am, and I genuinely look forward to meeting caring owners and all of your lovely pets 💕
